In this post, We will talk and learn about Apache Maven – Profiles
Build Profiles:
- Usually, maven Profiles allows us to define a multiple set of configurations and activate them based on certain conditions.
- The maven profile is an option or alternative set of configurations that set or override default values. Profiles allow us to customize a build for different environments.
What are the different types of profiles?
Per Project
– Defined in the POM itself (pom.xml).
Per User
– Defined in the Maven-settings (%USER_HOME%/.m2/settings.xml).
Global
– Defined in the global Maven-settings (${maven.home}/conf/settings.xml).
How can a profile is activated?
A profile can be triggered/activated in several ways:
- Explicitly
- Through Maven settings
- Based on environment variables
- OS settings
That’s all about Apache Maven – Profiles
